Why dōTERRA Essential Oils?
When I first decided to use essential oils, there were several companies to choose from. Honestly, it was all a little scary, and I wanted to make sure that I was going to use the best product. It was also somewhat confusing because the same essential oils from different companies had a wide range of prices, and all claimed to be pure essential oils. I already understood that there was a high rate of adulteration happening in essential oils, and I wanted to be sure that the essential oils I used were exactly what they said they were. So, I researched every essential oil company, and it took me three months to decide on dōTERRA.
I know even more now about essential oils then I did when I was first researching, and I'm thrilled that I chose dōTERRA. Allow me to share with you the information that helped me choose dōTERRA:

CPTG Certified Pure Tested Grade®
One of the main reasons I chose dōTERRA is because of where and how they source their essential oils. dōTERRA believes that plants produce the best chemical properties when they are grown and harvested in their native habitat. dōTERRA sources their oils from a global network of growers to ensure the most pure and efficacious essential oils. All dōTERRA essential oils are free from fillers, artificial ingredients, and harmful contaminants. Because of the potency of dōTERRA essential oils, one drop really is all you need in most cases, which is truly economical.
Each batch of essential oils goes through the following battery of tests to ensure that they are pure, potent, effective oils worthy of the dōTERRA name and CPTG Certified Pure Tested Grade® label:

Cō-Impact Sourcing®
In addition to supplying the highest quality essential oils, dōTERRA is committed to making a positive difference in the lives of farmers, harvesters, and distillers who contribute to doTERRA’s oil production.
With over 100 essential oils in its product line, dōTERRA sources its oils from over 40 countries —more than half of which could be considered developing countries. To ensure that small scale farmers and harvesters in disadvantaged areas are treated ethically, dōTERRA has introduced an initiative called Co-Impact Sourcing.
Co-Impact Sourcing is an initiative that seeks to develop long-term, mutually beneficial supplier partnerships while creating sustainable jobs and providing reliable income in underdeveloped areas. dōTERRA is committed to the ethical treatment of its suppliers by providing on-time payments at fair prices. Growers and harvesters are encouraged to form cooperative groups to share collective benefits and bargaining power while improving skills and capacity.
Additionally, the Healing Hands Foundation, dōTERRA’s charitable organization, provides funding and resources to create community-based, social-impact projects to improve lives in the larger communities where oils are sourced. Past projects include building or sponsoring existing medical clinics, fighting sex-trafficking, installing drinking water and irrigation systems, building schools, and providing other educational resources such as vocational training programs.

Education
dōTERRA and its Wellness Advocates continuously provide education on essential oils. Essential oils are potent and have few, if any, side effects when used properly. Knowing how to use them properly is essential. When you become a dōTERRA essential oil user, you will be properly educated on how to use your essential oils.
All the people that I have met since becoming a dōTERRA Wellness Advocate have become a second family to me. In the beginning, having someone to reach out to and ask questions was invaluable. You can always contact dōTERRA directly, but the great thing about our team is that we're global. Someone is typically around any hour of the day to guide you. And, there are plenty of Wellness Advocates that aren't on the team that will help answer questions and provide education, too.

The Rewards

The Free Products...
Where do I start???
Loyalty Rewards Program (LRP)
dōTERRA has a monthly auto-ship that allows me to earn a percentage of what I spend back in free oils. There are rules to the program, but you can earn 10-30% back in free oils. I have used this program since I began with dōTERRA, so I earn the full 30% back. That means that every time I place a $100 order with dōTERRA, I earn $30 to spend on whatever I want on the site. I use those rewards to buy the most expensive products.
I also earn the free product of the month if I spend 125pv before the 15th of the month. PV is identical to dollars paid on essential oils, but can vary on other products and bundles. Earning this free product of the month is how I built my oil collection quickly.
There are also product bundles available on LRP that can't be purchased otherwise. Bundles are groups of popular items at a lower price to purchase than if you purchased them individually.
The BOGOs
dōTERRA is the only company that I know of that offers Buy One OIl Get One OIl Free deals, and they do this a couple times of year. It's usually a pretty big deal for customers and an outstanding value.
The Bonuses
Many of dōTERRA's Wellness Advocates enjoy bonuses and compensation that are unparalleled in other businesses in the industry.

Debt Free Company
dōTERRA is debt free company. The founders used their own money to start the company and there are no investors. This is really important. This means that no one else can influence how the company runs. The money needed to pay the growers, distillers, testers, employees, and advocates is always available. They won't ever get involved in something financially that they can't afford, and their integrity will never be compromised. Plus, they have a Free to Give Program to help their advocates and customers become debt free as well.
My decision
When I look back now at how long it took me to decide on dōTERRA, I laugh. If I knew then what I know now, it wouldn't have taken me 3 months to choose. It's one of the best decisions I've ever made for myself and my family. I hope that dōTERRA resonates with you, as well. I'm always available to answer any questions you have, or guide you on your essential oil journey.
